The rapper reportedly turned himself in to Broward County Jail following a December arrest.

Lil Double 0, signee to Future's record label Freebandz, reportedly faces 15 years in prison on drug and gun charges. Moreover, the Memphis-born rapper tweeted that he'd turn himself in to Broward County Jail in Florida on Monday (February 27). From what reports from DJ Akademiks indicate, he did so following a December arrest in the state. Furthermore, paperwork shows that the "Fight That Switch" MC faces charges of trafficking of oxycodone, unlawful carrying of a concealed firearm, possession of ecstasy/MDMA, and driving without a valid license.

Also, Double 0 tweeted a somewhat cryptic message on Wednesday (March 1) that may or may not refer to his circumstances. "Can’t nobody f**k with me !" the rapper tweeted, real name Tyreke Rogers. "I’m just underrated but when I go global they wish they knew me!" In addition, the "Good On Love" artist wrote "Let's make this week epic" when announcing he'd turn himself in. Even with all the other prolific cases in hip-hop going on at the moment, this might strike fans as a strange anomaly. While it's not clear whether he's flexing this move or trying to be proactive, at least his social media doesn't indicate any fear.

Lil Double 0 Reportedly Set For 15 Years Of Jail Time

Interestingly, this isn't the only recent arrest related to Broward County. Furthermore, Kodak Black faced rehab for 30 days after he allegedly failed a drug test due to traces of fentanyl reportedly in his system. According to authorities, Yak handed in a drug test five days after failing to submit to a random test, and said submission came back positive. However, while in court on Tuesday (February 28), his legal team maintained that their client never tested positive in the first place.

Moreover, they claim that Kodak's been seeking help in his other drug addictions. His lawyer Bradford Cohen believes that the testing lab might've made a mistake or mixed up his urine sample. In fact, an allegedly star-struck employee admitted that an error in the tests was probable. While Judge Barbara Duffy suggested a hair sample to clear any confusion instead, the Floria rapper declined. Regardless of your take, come back to HNHH for the latest on Lil Double 0.
